The Spring 2018 College signings are underway in the Shore Conference.

Shore Regional High School, located in West Long Branch, headlines the spring edition of the National Letter of Intent process with today’s announcement.

The Blue Devils held their official spring day on April 11 and Harry S. Chebookjian III, Shore Regional’s Assistant Principal of Athletics & Student Activities, passed along a detailed list of where Shore Regional’s future star athletes are headed to college and what they’ll study when they get there.

"Although signing your name only takes 30 seconds, the moment reflects years of preparation, sacrifice, and determination both in and out of the classroom, and will now afford you the incredible opportunity to fulfill your dreams and set you on a course to reach your fullest potential,” Director of Athletics Vito Chiaravalloti said. “Although we celebrate today, this moment represents your past and impacts your future. Congratulations to all our student athletes on this extraordinary achievement."

Throughout their CBA playing careers, each of these student-athletes has been part of one or more championships.

The Academy celebrated these commitments on National Signing Day for soccer.
LINCROFT, N.J. – February 7, 2018 – Three Christian Brothers Academy seniors made their commitments to play soccer at Division I universities official on Wednesday afternoon.

John Askin (Monmouth University), Shane Keenan (University of Connecticut) and Conor Kelly (Duke University) happily signed their Letters of Intent on what is National Signing Day for soccer across the country.

“I want to congratulate these three outstanding student-athletes and their parents on this very special day,” Director of Athletics Vito Chiaravalloti said. “Many players dream of the opportunity to play at the next level, but only a select few get the chance. This privilege that Shane, John and Connor are now afforded is a testament to their tremendous efforts in the classroom and on the field.”

Both Askin and Keenan were major factors in CBA finishing as state finalists for the third straight year. The Colts were ranked 12th on the east coast by Top Drawer Soccer, a leading national scholastic publication. The Colts also were 10th in New Jersey by NJ.com and 2nd in the Shore power rankings by Shore Sports Network.

Askin was a two-year starter for the Colts as an impressive defenseman. As a junior, He was a critical piece to Christian Brothers’ state championship shutout victory over Seton Hall Prep in 2016, as well as scoring a goal during the Colts’ 2016 Shore Conference championship game win. In 2017, the senior captain was selected as a second team all-state player by NJ.com and an all-Shore player by Shore Sports Network.

Keenan joined the CBA varsity team this past fall and immediately made an impact for the Colts as a goalie. Alongside Askin and the rest of the defensive line, Keenan helped set a new program-record with 16 shutouts. He was selected to play in the U.S. Soccer High School All-American Game in December.

“It is always a privilege to be able to coach players like John Askin and Shane Keenan,” CBA head coach Tom Mulligan ’83 said. “The entire CBA community is proud of their contributions and accomplishments while representing CBA as student-athletes. Playing soccer at the Division I level is the dream of most high school players, and I’m thrilled that these two deserving players will get the opportunity to experience soccer at the next level.”

TINTON FALLS, N.J. (FEB. 7, 2018) – On Wednesday, February 7, Ranney senior Abby Boyan signed her National Letter of Intent to play women’s soccer at the University of Georgia.

Boyan wrapped up her senior season at Ranney with All-Non-Public First Team honors by NJ Advance Media. The forward scored over 100 career goals as a Panther, including a hat trick that she recorded for No. 13 seed Ranney in an upset 6-1 victory against fourth-seeded Calvary Christian in the first round of the South, Non-Public B playoffs this season.

“I had a great four years playing soccer for Ranney,” said Abby. “I learned a lot through my coaches and made some great memories with my teammates. I’m looking forward to playing college soccer for UGA.”

The Georgia commit was second in the conference with 35 goals. In the coaches' selection, Boyan was named All-Class B Central as a midfielder. Boyan was honored on the Shore Conference All-Division Team in ninth grade and 11th grade. She was named the team’s MVP all four years and served as captain for three years. She led the Panthers in goals each of the last four years and has led in assists for three years. Boyan also won two state championships with the Players Development Academy.

“Not many high school players reach 100 goals and she definitely worked hard for it,” said Ranney School Head Coach Sheree Dillard. “She is a great player with a bright future in the soccer world and it has been an honor to coach her and watch her impressive work ethic and dedication.”

The 2017 Georgia women’s soccer team completed the ninth-toughest schedule in the NCAA with a 4-12-2 overall record. The Bulldogs lost 11 players to graduation.

“Abby Boyan is our first female athlete to sign an NLI with a Power 5 Conference School,” said Ranney School Athletic Director Natalie Gorman. “We are so proud to have a Ranney ‘lifer,’ who has been in our Ranney School since kindergarten, achieve such a great honor both athletically and academically. We look forward to watching many of Abby's games on TV as her schedule will be broadcast nationally on the SEC network. Congratulations to Abby, her family, coaches, and teachers, on this historic day at Ranney School."

Boyan is a four-year varsity starter and letter winner in both soccer and swimming, and has started on the lacrosse team for the last two years.
